    Pixie how exciting. Will you teach me when we meet? I have not really ever done anything exciting. I grew up in hospital and used to go to the library so my brother couldnt find me. I had a fab time at university though. I was on the ball committee and everything. I never needed to get drunk, everyone said i could get as high as a kite on TEA!!!!

    Di i hope he hears soon. It is so exciting watching people's lives changing for the better. You sound like a fab mum.

    My son is wondering if he will hear from the CareersWales of an interview of the Career Adviser's post, I told him try to be a little more patient, it was only 2 days ago for the closing date lol.

    Still I remember feeling all anxious when applying for jobs.
